Microsoft Windows 11

Just purchased HP Win 11 home PC.  New Win 11 PC cannot drive old Cannon PIXMA MX310 printer.  Cannon says old printer not compatible with Win 11.  I am hoping there is a work around.

Thanks for any help that can be offered.

Very old models will likely not be supported by scanning, but Windows typically has a built in driver so you can at least print. You can try this document for assistance https://support.hp.com/ca-en/document/ish_2224996-1993298-16

It is written for HP but many of the steps are the same but use Canon instead of HP where required
